Hip

Tendon, Muscle Tears

A hip strain occurs when a muscle or tendon around the hip joint is stretched over its breaking point. This stretches or shreds these soft tissues partially or entirely in more severe strains.

Hip Replacement

Hip replacement is a surgical procedure in which the hip joint is replaced by a prosthetic implant, that is, a hip prosthesis. Hip replacement surgery can be performed as a total replacement or a hemi (half) replacement.Arthritis can cause elbow stiffness. The elbow is a joint that can quickly become stiff as a result of injury or disease.
Tendon, Muscle Tears

What is Tendon, Muscle tears?

A hip strain occurs when a muscle or tendon around the hip joint is stretched over its breaking point. This stretches or shreds these soft tissues partially or entirely in more severe strains. Overuse injuries to the hip muscles, tendons, and nerves are usually the consequence of repetitive motions that harm soft tissues.

Symptoms

Muscle, tendon, and nerve injuries induce varying degrees of pain depending on the severity and location of the injury. The following are some specific signs to keep an eye out for:

Piriformis syndrome is a painful condition that affects the rear of the hip and buttocks, as well as the back of the leg.

Gluteus medius syndrome is characterized by pain in the outer area of the hip. When elevating the leg, you may experience discomfort.

Snapping hip: this causes pain on the outside of the hip related to tension in the ligamentous band, which causes the leg to swing back and forth.
Hip Replacement

What is Hip Replacement?

Hip replacement is a surgical procedure in which the hip joint is replaced by a prosthetic implant, that is, a hip prosthesis. Hip replacement surgery can be performed as a total replacement or a hemi (half) replacement. Such joint replacement orthopaedic surgery is generally conducted to relieve arthritis pain or in some hip fractures. A total hip replacement (total hip arthroplasty or THA) consists of replacing both the acetabulum and the femoral head while hemiarthroplasty generally only replaces the femoral head.

Techniques

Posterior approach:

The posterior (Moore or Southern) approach accesses the joint and capsule through the back, taking piriformis muscle and the short external rotators of the femur.

Lateral Approach

The lateral approach is also commonly used for hip replacement. The approach requires elevation of the hip abductors (gluteus medius and gluteus minimus) to access the joint.

Minimally invasive Approaches:

The dual incision approach and other minimally invasive surgery seek to reduce soft tissue damage by reducing the size of the incision.

Antero-lateral Approach

The anterolateral approach develops the interval between the tensor fasciae latae and the gluteus medius.

Anterior Approach:

The anterior approach uses an interval between the sartorius muscle and tensor fasciae latae.
